Flower Phenotype
Flower phenotype refers to the observable physical characteristics of cannabis inflorescences—including bud structure, trichome density, calyx-to-leaf ratio, and overall morphology. These traits are determined by genetic expression interacting with environmental conditions such as light, temperature, and humidity during flowering. Breeders select for specific flower phenotypes to achieve desired yields, potency profiles, and processing characteristics. Phenotypic variation within a single strain can be significant, making consistent cultivation practices essential for reproducible results. Documentation of flower phenotype helps breeders stabilize strains and growers predict harvest outcomes.

Plant breeders prioritize flower phenotype selection to fix traits that influence commercial viability—such as resin production, structural integrity, and seed set in breeding populations. Phenotypic stability across generations is a key marker of a well-established strain line.
